I love stained glass art. If you tell me you don\u2019t, I know that you\u2019re a liar, because everyone loves stained glass. You know what else I love? Tarot. I think it\u2019s fairly well known that I have a tarot addiction, so all it took was the beautiful stained glass facade of James Edward\u2019s \u201cThe Stained Glass Tarot: An Illuminated Journey through the Cards\u201d to have me begging for a crack at a review copy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The illustrations and writing are both done by James Edward, and you know I always love a deck creator and illustrator in one! And how beautiful is this deck? The artwork does an excellent job of capturing stained glass art while keeping the images clear enough to recognize the cards. It would be amazing if they could have printed the cards in such a way that you could have light shine through it, but I suspect it would take away a lot of the mystery of a deck shuffle and make for some flimsy cards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Stained Glass Tarot\u201d comes with a well written guidebook that features extensive perspectives on how to use the cards. Edwards explores the history of tarot in conjunction with Carl Jung, alchemy, numerology, and astrology. He also offers a variety of spreads that cater to the variety of reasons people consult the tarot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is James Edward\u2019s \u201cStained Glass Tarot\u201d breaking new tarot ground? No, but that is okay. This a beautifully illustrated deck, using excellent card stock, with an expertly written guidebook, presented in attractive packaging. It’s perfect just the way it is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
